70s factory beauty, transform villain cubs to become rich

Chapter 541 Women's Federation
The dormitory buildings provided to the employees by the Third Garment Factory were all converted into dormitories.

The apartment, with two bedrooms and a living room, was only 60 square meters in total, yet it was crammed with 35 people, like sardines in a can.

The average area per person is less than two square meters.

They resorted to extreme accommodation methods just to barely provide a place for the employees to stay.

But the third garment factory was only borrowed for one year.

Build dormitory buildings.

It's urgent!

But where will the money come from?
Chen Qing can't just switch from export to domestic sales. He hasn't even finished his orders yet, and if he tries to expand into new markets, he'll easily get overwhelmed.

Chen Qing flipped through the financial statements and said, "I'll go talk to someone."

"Okay, you need to show some attitude. That tenement building is crammed with too many people. It's okay for singles, but many people have families and can't live there long-term."

Tian Mengya sighed.

She felt like her head was about to explode these past few days.

The factory was in huge debt from the very beginning.

Chen Qing: "Come with me."

"Row."

The two of them did what they said.

Preparing to go to the Light Industry Bureau.

As soon as Chen Qing went downstairs, he saw people making a big fuss.

Li Shengmei, who was in the middle of a tantrum, saw the factory manager. Her fierce and mean face immediately softened, and she smiled and said, "Factory manager, are you going out with that umbrella?"

Chen Qing: "Yes, what's wrong with you guys?"

“This little slut… ah… no… uh, this woman, her husband is an educated youth who came to work in our ironing workshop, and she wants to come too, and she wants to live in our dormitory. Isn’t this breaking the rules? Our Women’s Federation director asked me to deal with her.”

Li Shengmei is a feisty woman in charge of supervising the construction site.

She actively tried to persuade Chen Qing to hire her child for the garment factory.

In the end, she herself entered the garment factory and became a proud women's federation cadre.

Li Shengmei has recently developed a speech impediment. The women's director said that she can't say any dirty words that insult female comrades, because it affects her work and could easily lead to a deduction in her salary.

When it comes to wages, she can change anything!

Chen Qing glanced at the educated youth wiping away tears and asked, "Are they husband and wife?"

Li Shengmei shook her head: "No, we're dating."

"Let them resolve their personal issues themselves. If our staff doesn't handle it well, we'll criticize and educate them. The Women's Federation can't manage everything." Chen Qing opened her umbrella and said to Li Shengmei, "If both sides have problems, when you're criticizing the women, remember to criticize the men too. Don't ignore men just because they're right to be wrong. We need to pay attention to men, understand?"

"Uh huh huh!!!"

Li Shengmei nodded repeatedly.

Chen Qing nodded slightly, "I have something to attend to."

She walked into the rain with her umbrella.

Li Shengmei and the female educated youth stared blankly.

A moment later, Li Shengmei rushed into the ironing workshop and dragged the male employee out.

"You little brat, so you dumped your girlfriend on me, huh? Who do you think you are? You're always having affairs, and you expect me to clean up your mess? Who do you think you are? I'm warning you, you have one day to sort out this mess of your love life, or I'll issue a public reprimand!"

"I told you, it's her who's harassing me, and I have to go to work." Liu Guoqing rubbed his arm, his brows furrowed.

The women's federation at this summer sportswear factory is practically a bunch of female bandits.

They spoke rudely and even hit me inappropriately!

He finally came to the city from the countryside and became a proud, permanent employee with a monthly salary of thirty-six. How could he possibly let a small matter interfere with his work?

Li Sheng cursed, "You piece of trash, you're nothing but a piece of trash in the shop. You think you're so great just because you're a worker? What are you yelling about? And why are you looking at me like that? I'm a cadre! A cadre, you know that! You can handle this or not, I'm very busy. If you don't handle it well, we'll call out Liu Guoqing from the ironing workshop during our meeting!"

The women's federation at the garment factory is very busy.

Li Shengnan decided not to get entangled with them and went to take care of the next person.

She is now tasked with addressing the serious issue of female garment factory workers handing over their wages, and she cannot afford to be careless.

Liu Guoqing was furious. He glared at the woman who wanted to climb the social ladder, and then asked for leave to take her out to discuss the matter.

*
Unaware that he had inexplicably broken up a tragic relationship, Chen Qing had already arrived at the Light Industry Bureau.

Tian Mengya stood with her feet together and her hands neatly placed on her knees.

Chen Qing, with a cold face and the demeanor of a creditor demanding payment, said: "Director Qi, why don't we have the money through the normal procedures? Does the money the factory earns belong to me? Has the government stopped caring?"

"Director Chen, what are you saying? We only didn't approve a special amount for you because we urgently need foreign exchange this year. But think about the money you used to build the factory. Aren't you very well-off? We haven't been mistreating you in this respect."

Qi Yuanchao had a headache.

He doesn't manage the money.

But he has to help Chen Qing get the money.

Now that Chen Qing has no money in his account, he'll definitely cause trouble for him.

Chen Qing: "So, Director Qi, how do you plan to resolve our internal expenses, including dormitory construction?"

Qi Yuanchao: "Isn't the money for dormitory construction included in that one million?"

"Yes, there used to be, but with two months of temporary work and nearly a thousand people's wages, even if each person earns 18, it would still be 36,000."

There are still two months' worth of food left.

It even includes all our fabric expenses for the next month.

We have already transferred the 100,000 yuan to the fabric factory.

Although we are grateful that they are still willing to give our garment factory another chance, providing us with fabric in exchange for our foreign exchange quota next year.

But I'm just an ordinary person, and I prefer not to owe money.

Chen Qing showed Qi Yuanchao the account book that Tian Mengya had made.

Qi Yuanchao understood the content without even reading it: "I'll think of another way, but your garment factory is specifically in charge of foreign exchange, which is quite dangerous and doesn't have a stable income. Have you considered making sportswear for the domestic market as well?"

Chen Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Not at the moment. I'll consider it when I can no longer earn foreign exchange."

Earning foreign exchange is a specialty of sportswear factories and is closely related to her goals. Chen Qing knows that specializing in foreign trade is stressful, but she feels she can handle it.

If they can weather these next few years, their sportswear will be considered a well-established brand globally.

Qi Yuanchao brought up Wei Jianping's matter again: "I've read the documents your secretary sent me. The investigation into the destruction of the advertisement is still ongoing. We can't just arbitrarily slander an innocent person, but of course, we won't let a bad person go either. Once we catch someone, we'll definitely give you an explanation. But Comrade Wei has only just become the secretary, so it's normal for him to have some flaws. We can write a letter of criticism and ask him to correct them. What do you think? We still need to show some human compassion and not be too harsh on our veteran comrades. Don't you agree?"

Chen Qing leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, his brow furrowed with impatience. "He's an old man, yet he shows humanitarian concern. Why don't I?"

Qi Yuanchao asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"
